There are places that are more than their appearance or their stories. They carry a history with a specific gravity, one that draws seekers. Once revealed, they become something immeasurable: places for gathering and sharing ideas, for worship, and perhaps even where you find yourself, or your destiny. They are holy. In them, even as strangers, we set down what divides us and share what is usually kept private. These are the places we must hold.
